The Tip is 'Labeling Tip 1' Know Your Labeling - For products Made in America, the greater the US content the more American jobs required to produce it. So whenever possible choose the product with the highest percentage of U.S.content. US content must be disclosedon Made in USA textiles, automobiles, wool, and fur products. There is no law requiringmost other products to be marked or labeled made in USA, or, have any otherdisclosure about their amount of U.S. content. Those manufacturers and marketers who choose to make claims about the amount of U.S. content must comply with the FTC's Made in USA policy. Note: Imported products must have the country of origin on their label whileproducts partially Made in USA do not. For a product produced in the U.S. to be labeled made in USA, or claimed to beof domestic origin without qualifications or limits on the claim, the product must be all or virtually all made in the U.S. This would mean that all significant parts and processing that go into the product are of U.S. origin. The product should contain no (or negligible) foreign content. Made in the USA products create the greatest number of American jobs for our country. This is because the labor to produce the product, and the raw materials that go into the product, are created with American labor. For most products, there is no law requiring made in America labels, or any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on the label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. The product without the country origin on its label has some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Hurrycane What's the difference between the canes of today and those from 2000 years ago? Not much. So we asked ourselves, In today's age of technology and science, can't we come up with a better cane? And that's exactly what we set out to do. We studied the physics of physiology and the science of stability. We looked at prosthetic limbs, robotics and emerging materials. We talked to family, friends and experts about the challenges of limited mobility. Then inspiration struck. Why not design our cane after the most advanced machine on earth? The human body. It provides perfect balance and stability. It reacts to changing conditions. And each part of the body is designed to move in perfect unison with every other part. So we stopped trying to build a cane. And started to build an extension of the body. Hundreds of designs later, we had the HurryCane?. It pivots without you having to think about it. It tackles sand, gravel and snow better than traditional canes. And it stands upright, when you need to use your hands for something other than, well, holding a cane. And now, we've made a great design even better. Our all-new, redesigned Freedom Edition? is 20% lighter, 40% stronger and 100% American-made. It folds up more compactly, and adjusts to be even taller and shorter than ever before. With a wider base for better stability and Comfort-Fit handle, the new HurryCane? has been redesigned from top to bottom. If maintaining your mobility and independence are important to you, we invite you to try the HurryCane? Freedom Edition?. We think you'll agree: This all-terrain cane truly stands alone. |
